Nykaa Molten Matte Lipstick in Serena, Rs 525Ĭolour: More of a crimson mauve, this looks like a dark, dusty, grey-toned red on lighter skin, but the mauve undertones start showing up on deep-dark skin tones.įinish and texture: An almost oily and creamy liquid lipstick, this goes on really sheer and slippery, and later dries into a powdery matte finish.
